Do you know if non-chlorine bleach would work in the same way?

I’m a girl scout leader and my troop makes troop t-shirts each year. This is our 5th year and I was running out of ideas (and so done with tie dye and fabric/puffy paint. This is fabulous new option!

GSDMJThu, 28 Feb 2013 19:53:07 +0000http://www.designmom.com/?p=8197#comment-441248I am having issues with the bleach going under the letters, even though they are firmly stuck to the fabric…any hints or suggestions?

norahFri, 07 Dec 2012 15:59:10 +0000http://www.designmom.com/?p=8197#comment-418335Just finished making these as Hanukah for my nieces and nephews. I actually recommend not washing them first. Having the sizing on there to give you a lot more control even though it takes longer for the color to fade. My first (pre-washed) batch was a complete fail because the bleach so quickly seeped right under the vinyl designs. thanks for another great idea Gabby!

DanielleWed, 07 Nov 2012 21:37:28 +0000http://www.designmom.com/?p=8197#comment-408189Instead of using a rag to dab the bleach on, I would suggest using a spray bottle with diluted bleach. In the very least it can add a speckled look if you ever need it. That’s what I do whenever I bleach shirts

Kat ChaplinTue, 29 May 2012 17:41:19 +0000http://www.designmom.com/?p=8197#comment-360560Have you tried using rubber stamps? Wonder what we could use as ‘resist’ that bleach wouldn’t bleed through. Perhaps a water based glue that would wash out after the bleaching process was complete.

LeslieThu, 05 Jan 2012 14:32:46 +0000http://www.designmom.com/?p=8197#comment-329974I love this. I was actually thinking this would be a great summer project and an awesome way to recycle the tees the kids have gotten those little oily stains on. I want to try to do a fairy design for my daughter and drum sticks for my son….
